Indian equities open higher, then slide

By IANS

 A key Indian equities market index opened higher on Monday, after slipping into a four-and-a-half month low the week before, but the green run was short-lived, and it fell into the negative zone within 20 minutes of trading.

The sensitive index (Sensex) of the Bombay Stock Exchange opened at 27,565 points, against the previous close at 27,437.94 points.

But the slide began soon after and it slipped to 27,410.70 points, down 27.24 points, or 0.10 percent, over the previous close.

At the National Stock Exchange (NSE), the broader Nifty was ruling at 8,287.05 points, down 18.20 points, or 0.22 percent.
